#24779: perl5.8 files contain -arch flags -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: ricci@… Type: defect | Status: assigned Priority: High | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.2 Keywords: | Port: perl5.8 -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Comment(by ricci@…):
This is why the arch flags must be removed from the files perl5.8 installs. If individual p5 modules then have trouble building universal, we can address those issues in those portfiles, but I do not anticipate any such issues.
I'm concerned that perl modules/interfaces won't build, not that they won't build universal. Perhaps perl should be marked with "universal_variant no" instead, that seems like it will avoid the problem you're having. If someone has some time to test the above patch and build a variety of perl XS type modules (postgresql could be a good one, p5-gtk2 could be good as well) to make sure things work, that would be a big help in resolving this issue. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/24779#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
